It's that time of year again, when the press comes in thick and fast - now we have yet another accolade from the GuíaExcesodeVinos 2007 in Venezuela. Favourable comments about our CasalCaeiro 2005 that read as follows:

"Produced by Bodegas Castro Martín in the Salnés Valley. The pergolas of the vineyard are an average of 50 years old and are cultivated in sandy soils. The harvesting is done by hand.

Fresh and young, yellow-green color, the nose is potent, rich and aromatic and opens out into a fantastic array of ripe white fruits and salty mineral notes. Clean in the mouth, intense, lively and fresh acidity - long and persistent finish.

Expressive. Seems to jump from the tongue to envelop the palate."

CasalCaeiro was also featured in a list of best quality/price wines and also the most seductive wines.
